Differential gearing allows power to be split to two shafts (let's just
say wheels), traveling at different speeds, with equal TORQUE going to
each wheel. The differential gear carrier rotates at the AVERAGE speed of the two wheels.
You can see how handy this would be going around a curve. The two wheels turn at different speeds, and the differential keeps the torque equal to them while they're doing that.
